PowerChute Personal Edition Email Notifications

[Anonymous user]

Hi,

Just purchased a back-UPS and found out that the PCPE does not allow you to send emails on power outage. In fact this is the entire reason I purchased an APC!

Is there a way I can use some script, windows power management, or other way to enable emails to be sent on power failure and power restore?

THanks

Hello - yes, by design (currently), only PowerChute Business Edition for Smart UPS does support notification options such as email or a Network Management Card accessory used with Smart UPS and any other SmartSlot enabled UPS as well.
